Conclusion

General + -
With the Strafe RGB, Corsair have created a high quality gaming keyboard, which has almost no flaws at all. We like the fact, that this keyboard feels very sturdy, which is partially because of the high weight. Apart from that there is the new keyfeature, the Cherry MX RGB Silent switches, which are very comfortable for typing and allow complete customiziation of the backlight. In addition there are also two USB ports on the back of the keyboard.   - Weight

- USB
- RGB
- No audio connectors
 
Manufacturing quality / Ergonomics   + -
The Corsair Strafe RGB gaming keyboard is comfortable to use, all the keys are well placed and easy to reach so you will not find yourself pressing a wrong key by accident. Regarding the Cherry MX Silent RGB switches we can say, they're precise and linear as usual while providing excellent tactile feedback. Comparing these switches to other models from Cherry they a lot more silent than Cherry MX Red but still quite far from rubber dome switches.   - Build quality
- Comfort
- Cherry MX RGB Silent
 
 
Software   + -
The software is essential but has everything you need, it is free and fast to get, since it's ony 40 MB you have to download from Corsair's website. We do like the fact, that macros can be programmed to each and every key on the Strafe RGB and apart from that also the backlight is highly customizable. Thanks to the display processor you can even create wave, pulse or rain effects.   - Easy to use - Customizability  
 
Recommendation / Price   + -
A closer look at the price of the Corsair Strafe RGB reveals that you have to pay 160 Euro in order enjoy this keyboard. For this price you get a gaming Keyboard, which features mechanical switches, individual backlight and a very high build quality. Despite all this good features we think that the price is a bit too high.   - Gaming

The Strafe RGB from Corsair receives very good 4 out of 5 stars.
